cadence weapon - tl;dr lyrics
[verse]
my hero never read a book
that’s the first thing they took
taking away our language
just to make us less dangerous
corporations put their hooks in us
then they watch and let us dangle
throw the book at you, a scandal
throw my words up like a vandal
white walls in the gallery
stare like i’m part of the action
lose your life over a caption
capsize, now look who’s the captain?
hard to tell who’s real and who’s cappin’
capitalism in action
camera flash camouflaging the answers
cars and mansions gone in a flash
got you asking ‘what happened?’
karma coming right back because of your stances
i read too much, get stuck out of balance
just likе a flying wallenda
life like a bеauty pageant
mood enhancing beverage, too advanced
performative compassion, viral dances
better image capture on the search for perfect matches
bad faith reading but your fans got your back
no matter what happens
they crowdfund scammers
who are always claiming they’re fighting the masters
lining their pockets, happening often
signing petitions and constantly reaping the profits
obnoxious like cops who treat taxpayers like corporate sponsors
no amount of copaganda will make me forget about all of the trauma
and everyone online wanna mine it for commas
trauma farmers, barter for my soul
then balk when i try to argue
harder and harder to know what side of the wall i’m onto
my dms filled with racists
to them, black death’s a celebration
and black life is more of a provocation
merchants of death masquerade as press
got pound of flesh, they’ll pay it
livestreamed my grandma’s wake
i wish i coulda made it
don’t hate the game
i just hate the way they play it
regurgitating disinformation
bench warmers tryna score points
while remaining nameless
never citing sources
unbothered, staying faceless
tasteless tastemaker
never make a stand, clout chaser
cows to slaughter
always bragging ’bout their brand, so remorseless
streaming apps use my catalogue to leave me voiceless
posthumous release, only time i’ll get promoted
couldn’t find relief, i couldn’t find my focus
did some therapy, finally got sober
all i want is peace and sp+ce to grow older
with my family until it’s all over
remember when they used to call me rollercoaster?
‘too long, didn’t read’ when i made this post
[outro]
i ain’t reading all that
yo, i’m happy for you
or sorry that happened
but i ain’t reading all that
i ain’t reading all that
that declaration of independence
that’s too long, i ain’t reading all that
i ain’t reading all that
too long, didn’t read, bro
